One of my main goals in life is to have financial freedom. I’m pretty passionate about things that will help me achieve that goal. Like talking about my finances, my stocks and investments, and savings.

Some of my favorite activities are working, going to the gym, and game design. I currently work at DICKs sporting goods as a customer service specialist or a CSS for short. My job can at times be very eventful. There are times when I’m at work that I feel really happy, or I just feel Spain with a silent S. What I mostly do at work is supervise the cashiers and help them out when they need it. And as my job title says I handle mostly all things customer service related, so that’s fun.

A time that I can recall when I felt brave is when I somewhat stopped a man from stealing a bunch of jackets from our store. He had been acting suspicious ever since he walked into the store and when he finally decided to just run for it, I was able to grab some of the jackets out of his hands before he ran into the automatic doors that didn’t open in time, so he just ran straight into a glass door, which was pretty funny in the end.
